Question

Which equation best describes the same line as y - 6 = -4(x+1)

Answer 1

y - 6 = -4(x+1) is equivalent to equation C: y = -4x + 2

Explanation:

Solve the given y - 6 = -4(x+1) for y and remove the parentheses shown:

y - 6 = -4(x+1) becomes

y = -4(x + 1) + 6, or

y = -4x - 4 + 6, or

y = -4x + 2 This is equivalent to equation C.
